  • Add edited files to .zip
  • Rename .zip to .epub

If you're using Calibre, it can do the first two and last two steps above (but you mention opening in Reader Library so I suspect that's not the case).

That all said, I'd just edit the html files directly in Sigil...

I am using Sigil to edit them. I tried to rename the original epub to a zip, but Windows 7 is making it difficult. I've tried to just change the name using the Rename function and adding .zip but it still recognizes the file as .epub. That's why I asked if there was some way to create the zip file.

Dale, I can use Find/Replace to change the Ascii characters in the file. I was REALLY hoping there was an easier way to change them all without the one-on-one replace. Thank you so much for all your help today.
